Definitions

  • analgesic potentiation is a type of pharmacologic activity that occurs when greater analgesic effectiveness is measured in patients treated with an analgesic drug combined with a non-analgesic ingredient than in patients treated with the analgesic drug alone. There are many reasons for the potentiation of an analgesic.
  • analgesic effectiveness it would be desirable to enhance the clinical outcome for the patient (i.e., analgesic effectiveness). It would also be desirable to reduce the dosage of the analgesic (i.e., “optimal dose”) that is administered in view of possible side effects exhibited by the same or higher dose of the analgesic (i.e., “optimal analgesia,” a reduction of the risk:benefit ratio). It would also be desirable to provide greater pain relief or faster onset of pain relief. It would also be desirable to provide a longer duration, which results in less frequent dosing and better compliance. Finally, if the analgesic can improve one or more qualities of pain or one or more bodily functions of the patient or provide definite improvement of the patient, which will be discussed in greater detail below, these would be added benefits.
  • the measurement instruments for these overall effects are standard methods for determining general patient response such as analgesic activity.
  • analgesic potentiation for example, clinical investigators by convention utilize these methods to demonstrate, to a statistically significant degree, that a combination of drugs provides “greater reduction in pain intensity” and “more pain relief” than the single-ingredient analgesic.
  • conventional methods may not be able to demonstrate that a combination of the analgesic with another drug provides analgesic effectiveness to a greater extent than the analgesic alone.

  • results over the 6-hour observation period are presented separately for the standard measurement instrument, the Throat Soreness Scale, and for each new method.
  • TSS Throat Soreness Scale
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/loratadine to ibuprofen revealed an 11% difference in the median total reduction of TSS over 6 hours.
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/hydroxyzine to ibuprofen revealed a 22% difference in TSS reduction over 6 hours.
  • All active single- and combination-ingredient drugs also demonstrated greater analgesic efficacy compared with placebo in terms of throat soreness difference at individual time points, showing pharmacodynamic curves typical of analgesic drugs.
  • Acetaminophen separated from placebo from 15 minutes through 6 hours; ibuprofen separated from placebo from 30 minutes through 6 hours ( FIG. 3 ), as did naproxen and celecoxib. There were no apparent differences between any of the single-ingredient analgesics.
  • TSS scores showed differences from placebo for ibuprofen/loratadine beginning at 15 minutes; for ibuprofen/nizatidine and for celecoxib/ceterizine beginning at 30 minutes; and for ibuprofen/hydroxyzine beginning at 45 minutes.
  • Ceterizine showed some enhancement of the onset of analgesic action by celecoxib, suggesting that an adequately sized onset-of-action study might discern this contribution to pharmacodynamic activity. Overall, however, there was no evidence on the TSS of analgesic potentiation by ceterizine when combined with acetaminophen or celecoxib. And, while loratadine does augment ibuprofen's analgesia as measured on the TSS, at this stage in our research it appears that loratadine provides no detectable analgesic potentiation when combined with naproxen sodium (suggesting that the naproxen sodium salt, unlike ibuprofen, may interfere with loratadine activity).
  • IA Improvement Assessment
  • 9/9 patients who received acetaminophen or ibuprofen achieved at least some improvement within 1 hour, as did 7/9 patients who received celecoxib or naproxen, compared with 4/9 patients who received placebo.
  • 9/9 patients who received ibuprofen/nizatidine, 8/9 patients who received acetaminophen/ceterizine or ibuprofen/hydroxyzine 7/9 patients who received ibuprofen/loratadine
  • 6/9 patients who received naproxen/loratadine achieved at least some improvement within 1 hour.
  • 8/9 patients who received acetaminophen achieved at least some improvement within 30 minutes, as did 6/9 patients who received ibuprofen, 4/9 patients who received naproxen, and 3/9 patients who received celecoxib, compared with 1/9 of patients who received placebo.
  • All active single- and combination-ingredient drugs also demonstrated greater improvement than placebo at individual time points, showing pharmacodynamic curves typical of analgesic drugs.
  • the IA curves for acetaminophen and ibuprofen separated from placebo from 30 minutes through 6 hours; celecoxib and naproxen from 45 minutes through 6 hours. There were no apparent differences between any of the single-ingredient analgesics.
  • IA scores showed differences from placebo for acetaminophen/ceterizine and ibuprofen/nizatidine beginning at 30 minutes; for ibuprofen/loratadine, ibuprofen/hydroxyzine, and celecoxib/ceterizine beginning at 45 minutes; and for naproxen/loratadine beginning at 60 minutes.
  • DIL Definite Improvement Level
  • the Definite Improvement Level system was thus validated as a measurement instrument. Using the DIL measure, differences were clearly seen between antihistamine/analgesic combinations and placebo on different rating scales. However, the DIL did not differentiate antihistamine/analgesic combinations from single analgesics perhaps because, as a nominal scale (i.e., definite improvement, no definite improvement), the DIL identifies the presence (or absence) of drug activity, not differences between degrees of response.
  • D. Difficulty Swallowing Scale (DSS) D. Difficulty Swallowing Scale
  • Ibuprofen/loratadine, ibuprofen/hydroxyzine, ibuprofen/nizatidine, and celecoxib/ceterizine also differed from placebo on this measurement.
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/loratadine to ibuprofen revealed an 18% difference in the total reduction of DSS over 6 hours.
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/hydroxyzine to ibuprofen revealed a 55% difference in DSS reduction over 6 hours.
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/nizatidine to ibuprofen revealed a 78% difference in DSS reduction over 6 hours.
  • All single- and combination-ingredient drugs also demonstrated greater analgesic efficacy compared with placebo in terms of a difference in difficulty swallowing at individual time points, showing pharmacodynamic curves typical of analgesic drugs.
  • loratadine does augment ibuprofen's analgesia as measured on the DSS, it appears that loratadine provides no detectable analgesic potentiation when combined with naproxen sodium (perhaps because the naproxen sodium salt interferes with loratadine activity).
  • DTS Difficulty Talking Scale
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/loratadine to ibuprofen revealed 80% difference in the total reduction of DTS over 6 hours ( FIG. 7 ).
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/hydroxyzine to ibuprofen revealed 40% difference in DTS reduction over 6 hours.
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/nizatidine to ibuprofen revealed 120% difference in DTS reduction over 6 hours.
  • All single- and combination-ingredient drugs also demonstrated greater analgesic efficacy compared with placebo in terms of a difference in difficulty talking at individual time points, showing pharmacodynamic curves typical of analgesic drugs.
  • All single- and combination-ingredient drugs also demonstrated greater analgesic efficacy compared with placebo in terms of a difference in throat function at individual time points, showing pharmacodynamic curves typical of analgesic drugs.
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/loratadine to ibuprofen revealed 250% difference in the reduction of qualities of throat pain over 6 hours ( FIG. 10 ).
  • the comparison of ibuprofen/hydroxyzine to ibuprofen revealed 130% difference in the reduction of qualities of throat pain over 6 hours.
  • the new scales used herein also identified differences between antihistamine/analgesic combinations and the respective single analgesics Several new measurement instruments (e.g., Difficulty Swallowing Scale, Difficulty Talking Scale, Throat Function Index, Swollen Throat Scale, Qualities of Pain Index) described herein indicated that hydroxyzine, loratadine, and nizatidine enhance the analgesic properties of ibuprofen.
  • ibuprofen 200 mg/nizatadine 150 mg from ibuprofen 200 mg suggests, too, that this combination may confer the same or greater extent of analgesia as a 400-mg dose of ibuprofen (thus avoiding potential side effects associated with high dosages of NSAIDs), an example of “optimal analgesia” in the antihistamine/analgesic combination.
